High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-01-12 v2

Abstract

A supersymmetric solution to type II supergravity is constructed by superposing two hyperk\"ahlers with torsion metrics. The solution is given by a K\"aler with torsion metric with SU(3)SU(3) holonomy. The metric is embedded into a heterotic solution obeying the Strominger system, together with a Yang-Mills instanton obtained by the standard embedding. T dualities lead to an SO(6)SO(6) instanton describing a symmetry breaking from E8E_8 to SO(10)SO(10). The compactification by taking a periodic array yields a supersymmetric domain wall solution of heterotic supergravity.
